Where is SharePoint data stored in Australia?

In Australia, SharePoint Online data for Microsoft 365 is stored in Microsoft's Australia data centre regions, specifically Australia East (New South Wales) and Australia Southeast (Victoria), collectively known as Australia Geo.

If your Microsoft 365 tenant is provisioned in the Australia Geo, the following SharePoint-related data is stored locally:

• SharePoint Online site content (documents, lists, metadata, etc.).
• OneDrive for Business files (tied to SharePoint under the hood).
• Microsoft Teams files (stored in SharePoint libraries).
• SharePoint site collections and document libraries.

This storage complies with Microsoft’s data residency commitments, ensuring the data remains within Australia for core Microsoft 365 services.
